Dressed to Impress meets Ornate Frames for a gorgeous hand made box!

These are the boxes I included in my Spring Retreat last month.  I think they're gorgeous and was so happy with how they turned out!

They're hand made from White and Lovely Lipstick card stock with fussy cut flowers and leaves from the Best Dressed designer series paper added to the top. The greeting is from the Dressed to Impress stamp set. The pretty die-cuts are from the Ornate Frames & Ornate Border dies which are now available again!  See them here. 

Here's a picture of the assembly process:

Here are the box dimensions:

  • Top is 3 3/4" X 5 1/2" scored at 3/4" on all sides
  • Bottom is 3 5/8" X 5 3/8" and scored at 3/4" on all sides.  

Tips:

  • Once you have the box pieces cut and scored you can use the Ornate Border dies to die-cut the pretty windows in the sides.  
  • Cut the White frame using the Ornate Frames dies. Stamp the greeting and add fussy cut leaves and flowers. 
  • Fill with chocolate!

  • Cheerfully Inked card kit to go; reserve yours soon!

    Because we’re moving to Bismarck in July I will have just one card kit to go in June. I will be busy packing and moving so I’m cutting back on blog posts, videos and creating for a few weeks.

    This kit to go features the Inked Occasions Paper Pumpkin kit. Look how colorful and beautiful they are?! Of course I changed up the original kit to create these:

  • Last of the Team card swaps featuring new products

    Today I’m sharing the last two swaps from May; our theme was to use new Summer catalog products.

    This first card was made by Ginny. She cased a card made by Chelle Scott.

    She used the Fern & Flora bundle seen here. Who doesn’t love ferns!? Stampin’ Up! did an awesome job on these dies.
    The colors here are Mossy Meadow, Old Olive and Peaceful Pine.

    And look at that gorgeous embossing folder – called Fern & Flora 3D folder is stunning! See it here.

    Next is a pretty card made by Paula who featured the Valley in Bloom Designer Paper.

    Save

    It’s a book binding card fold. Start with a 11″ X 4 1/4″ card base; score at 4 1/4″ & 5 1/2″. Adhere the ‘binding’ area down.
    Her colors include Blackberry Bliss with Granny Apple Green. She added some of the new 2026-28 In Color butterflies too.

    This designer paper is simply stunning; it’s so soft and yet detailed at the same time. See it here.

    Here’s what she did on the inside. The dies are so pretty!

  • Neat Diagonal Z-fold with Balloon Festoon; free project sheet too!

    I created this card for my May Team swap; the theme was to use new Summer catalog products.

    Save

    The Balloon Festoon bundle is a new favorite of mine. The multiple sizes of balloon dies are just wonderful and perfect for any celebratory event. See it here.

    I used the 12 X 12 Pool Party 2-tones card stock for the diagonal layer. It’s 12″ X 5 1/4″ scored every 4″. Then simply cut at an angle from the lower left to the upper second score line.

    Save

    The cute patterned balloons are cut from the new Beautiful Ordinary Life designer paper (seen here) and the new 2026-28 In Color Patterns DSP. See it here.
